It would be really time for a big aDNA study on Thuringians, there should be enough material available. But strangely I see nothing in the pipeline even with the MPI being located there.
By the way, I would doubt the Eastern borders of Thuringia shown on the map, esp. the Elbe border. If I see it correctly there should be no Slavs in Bohemia in 526. The region east of the Elbe was already mainly depopulated but I would assume that till the incursions of the Avars in 562/68 the region at least till the Oder was under Thuringian influence.
I think that the Thuringians also have genetic input from repatriated Ostrogoths from the Carpathian Basin (Poland/Ukraine and Romania), there were also marriage relationships and mergers.
